Well, that wasn't the immediate impetus, as I explained above.
I'm not sure about whether or not it's a background reason. It's true that lately my marriage has been in a slight trough. The best description I ever heard of marriages was in the movie "The Four Seasons" with Alan Alda. He says that marriages are like a wave; they have crests and troughs. There are probably tons of reasons. We're both under a fair amount of family and work stress. I have every confidence that our marriage will crest again, and then fall into a trough, and then crest again, for the rest of our days.
But the realization that our marriage could use a little TLC right now is probably an underlying theme in both making the appointment and in wondering about emotional fidelity.
Though honestly, those aren't things my husband complains about at all. He would prefer that I remember to unload the dishwasher and move the laundry along. :)
